Cloth and clay 2024

​

Painterly, rhythmical compositions that celebrate process within stitch and thread, have driven creative decision-making, engrossed within materiality.

​

Using collage and expressive hand stitch, surfaces are manipulated and textured to embody a painterly textile quality.

​

Seeds of thought and nurtured beginnings include the ‘Nocturne’ and ‘Lunar Cycle’.

​

The circle, of course represents wholeness, the self, eternity and timelessness.

​

Colours and there many shades, play with the ethereal; the balancing of dark and light, soft and hard qualities.
